Unhealthy mental health habits are behaviours that have a negative effect on the way we think and the way we feel about ourselves.

We often believe our mood and our mental health are solely dependent on external factors and that we have little ability to control them. We often wonder why we get so easily irritated, upset, sad, lethargic, and bored in life.

Then, as a solution, we try to improve our mood and cope with stress by engaging in unhealthy behaviours. And this, unfortunately, makes our mood even worse.

Yes, it’s true that our mood is affected by our brain chemistry. 

But, remember one thing...

Our brain chemistry is largely affected by our behaviours and habits in life. If we treat ourselves with care and know what makes us happy, we are going to have a more balanced brain chemistry.

Here are a few common bad mental health habits that might be making you unhappy and unsatisfied with your life.
